These kinds of legumes are used in preparation of recipes. When they are sprouting, they add the nutritional content that is in the legumes. They also contain some medicinal characteristics in them. This makes them to be easy to consume and digest. That is the reason why one is mainly advised to use the ones that have sprouted as compared to those which have not.

When one uses the legumes that have sprouted, they receive so many advantages. One of the advantages is that it increases the level of health in the individuals. It also helps in good metabolism of the sprouts. This is an added advantage to them. In the recent past, they were mainly described by their scientific word which is the Vigna radiate.
